I'm going with Roy with very little evidence to back my claim. It's a ****** thing to say but I just have a feeling roy will be more motivated then he's been in years and will be completely on his game. He'll find a way to make Calzaghe more selective with his offense and will make the fight close enough to win on accuracy. Sure roy's legs aren't completely there anymore but his handspeed, punching power, and accuracy are. His stamina seems pretty good in recent fights too.

Now add some power, more speed, and more aggression and you have a tough night for Joe......if the Roy i'm thinking shows up it'll be a long night for him

Originally posted by iBox4Real View Postlol at spoiling tactics.....roys clever, has body strength, and definitely can counterpunch........i take nothing away from Bernard because he's a slick fighter but Roys no slouch in any of those departments either.

Originally posted by abadger View PostMobility, workrate, aggression. Roy is quite static in the ring now, quite easy to hit and can fight only in spurts. He'll have to work every minute of every round for twelve rounds to keep calzaghe off him and he won't be able to.
Joes never been in the ring with a Roy Jones.....even a old Roy Jones....so after Roy opens up a bit how will Joe react? will he be able to keep up that workrate and aggression??
its hard to keep that up when your being countered and beat to the punch

i like both guys and can see it going either way, either because joe is too busy for him and roy stays covered up on the ropes or roy has one last great fight in him and decides to stay busy and off the ropes because if he is waiting for joe to tire he will be waiting all night.i guess it really depends on roy on the outcome because joe is gonna do what he does its up to roy if he can change from what he has been doing.

Joe is in some trouble, thats why he said "HE" knew he couldn't beat Roy a few years ago! Thats why we haven't seen him here til now.
I fully expect you to give Calzaghe proper credit when he beats Jones.
